The 2014AA release of the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) Knowledge Sources is available for
|
|
<a href="//www.nlm.nih.gov/research/umls/licensedcontent/umlsknowledgesources.html">download</a> as of May 12, 2014.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the new UMLS Release there are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>More than 2.9 million concepts and 11.6 million unique concept names from 150 source vocabularies </li>
|
|
<li>The full Metathesaurus requires 22.8 GB of disk space; the active release requires 22.1 GB of disk space.</li>
|
|
<li> 1 new source
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Veterinary Extension to SNOMED CT<span class="registered">®</span> (SNOMEDCT_VET)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>25 updated English sources and 19 updated translation sources including MeSH, MedDRA, RxNorm, and SNOMED CT (English and Spanish)</li>
|
|
<li>SPECIALIST Lexicon and Lexical Tools 2014 Releases</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Data Changes</strong>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The Metathesaurus no longer includes the Metathesaurus CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) Hierarchical Terms source (SAB=MTHCH). The full CPT hierarchy is available within SAB=CPT as of 2014AA.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Logical Observation Identifier Names and Codes (LOINC)</strong>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The content of the 18 LOINC subsources (such as patient assessment instruments) is now attributed to SAB=LNC, with SRL=0. As a result there are 18 fewer SABs in the Metathesaurus. Users of this content are expected to abide by the terms of the UMLS Metathesaurus License agreement as outlined in Appendix 1. The 18 SABs that no longer appear in the Metathesaurus are:
|
